Title: A strange songscore on Beautiful Dreamer documentary
Post by: PickupExcitations on September 26, 2025, 11:00:40 PM
In the credit scene of after the end of the 2004 documentary Beautiful Dreamer: Brian Wilson and the Story of SMiLE introduces the additional songscore of it. It shows that there's a tune called "Psycho-Cybernetics" which was arranged by Darian Sahanaja. I couldn't find the information of that tune anywhere on the Internet (only to find there's a book of that name by Maxwell Maltz), so what is the tune actually? Thanks a lot for any information~

"In the documentary Beautiful Dreamer: Brian Wilson and the Story of Smile [Brian] says, 'I always wanted to learn about life, meta-physics, spirituality, philosophy.’”

Maybe the music accompanying that scene holds the key.

Just a thought...

Here you go. From 8:47 to 9:38, you can hear a trippy version of the intro to "California Girls". I'd say this is the songscore in question -- the image just after 9:05 would seem to bear this out.
